Synopsis

DO YOU DO WHAT YOU DO BEST EVERY DAY?
Chances are, you don’t. From the cradle to the cubicle, we devote more time to fixing our shortcomings than to developing our strengths.
To help people uncover their talents, Gallup introduced StrengthsFinder in the 2001 management book Now, Discover Your Strengths. The book ignited a global conversation, while StrengthsFinder helped millions discover their top five talents.
In StrengthsFinder 2.0, Gallup unveils the new and improved version of its popular online assessment. With hundreds of strategies for applying your strengths, StrengthsFinder 2.0 will change the way you look at yourself—and the world—forever.

Good online test, book light on new content,by Anonymous

October 22, 2008: I loved the first book "Now Discover Your Strengths" because I felt the premise was important and the exploration was innovative. When I took the online assessment, I was surprised by the results. They didn't seem to fit my strengths. I bought this book, as I was curious to read the results of the feedback from the first book and how it was presented. I found little new. The assessment however, was much improved, and this time, I related to two of the top five strengths. I recommend this book because of the improvemed assessment. I definitely recommend the "Optimal thinking online assessment" to learn about your dominant level of thinking and patterns of thinking and how to optimize communication with others. Do both!

What are your top 5 strengths?by Anonymous

September 23, 2008: Strengths Finder 2.0 is the follow up to Gallups Now, Discover Your Strengths. The book includes a revamped version of the test that shows you not just what your top five strengths are, but also how you rank in the rest of the 34 strengths from Clifton's model. The new book is light on content (very light) but the test is a substantial improvement. If you haven't taken it before, the code to take the test is provided in a packet inside the book (you actually have to buy the book to take the test). I've enjoyed two other books recently that include a code to let you take an online test. One is The Emotional Intelligence Quick Book (has fascinating stories and research as well) and the other is The Personality Code (kind of like the strengths but also focused on overcoming your weaknesses and avoiding clashes with your personality's anti-type).
